ARC Trooper WIP

I'm working on some ARC troopers and would like some input and advice so here one is:

I will going to clean him up soon:



The strap on the gun works as well:



Here is a scene I whipped up real quick:



Comments and Tips appreciated. I have a question though, Any body know a good way to make the pistols that fordo carries in the old clone wars series?

Pretty good so far but you need to sand a few things and make those straps not as stringy at the ends! They look pretty accurate so far!

It could use a little cleaning up, but it's good!

That looks nice.

Please use 5 word. And read this before posting again.

I really like the thing with the gun-sling you've got going on, but as has been said before, it looks a little frayed. If only there were some mystical modder who could make something that would work for all Lego guns to sling them over shoulders... Where's MMCB when you need him! Still, it's good to see you try to make something original and not just use others work, originality is a good trait.

OH I know, take a cylinder and a megaphone, and put them together at the stud and ta da!

Or you could take a DC-17 pistol and do the same just without the megaphone.

Thanks for the tips Delta, but please don't double post, and the cylinder on the pistol is too big, I've already tried it.

This is looking good so far, Shadow! The gun strap is a great idea!

It looks very good, I like the strap you made for him.

He looks nice except the sharpie job is strange in the tinniest bit. Other than that, it looks just fine!

Why don't you just use the normal ARC pistols....I don't know, can't quite remember what they look like

But he's a great start, like you said, just needs a bit of 'cleaning'. I like the gun sling!

That is really nice, I love it!

No but go to Brick arms and try out their Auto-9 Here is a pic with one of my minifigures with the blaster.

The sharpie is pretty good but as people say it could use some cleaning up. I like the strap, it is a very neat idea. I have never seen it used before.

This arc trooper looks really cool we can see his gun strap works well. He also has pretty good sharping on him, but the gun strap is kind of stringy I guess you could say and is that a knee pad on his left leg?

Could I see a reference picture of Fordo's guns? I'm usually pretty good at making guns.Lego guns thats is. Not real ones.

Waaay off-topic. Don't push it Stone, this is your 2rd offense today!

I thought Fordo just had those two pistols, no?
